Descripción
hello!
my name is Madge and I am currently traveling with my partner Maggie. After a few years of travelling the U.S. and living in New York City, we're excited to be exploring other parts of the world.

We are artists and activists with a passion for community. We have found the most joy living in spaces that prioritize creativity, communication, and authentic connections between people. We have experience living in communes, homesteads, and farms, and Maggie has worked in refugee centers in Serbia (during 2018) and Mexico (2023).

A little bit about Madge:
I am a performing artist who creates through singing, improvisation, spoken word and movement. I also love community organizing and have produced 4 seasons of Speakeasily, a women's open mic in New York City. I'm a natural extrovert and love hearing and telling stories. I work as a digital freelancer specializing in graphic design, website design, social media management, and video editing. I also love to crochet!

A little bit about Maggie:
I'm a visual artist comfortable in many mediums, but painting is my main passion. I also have a degree in psychology, and have worked for several years as a licensed psychotherapist. About a year ago I left my private practice to pursue art full time, and have found it an equally powerful avenue towards healing. Over the past year, I've been a street artist in New York City and have had the opportunity to paint some murals, something I would love to do more of! I've also started learning to tattoo which has been my latest challenge and inspiration.

Madge & Maggie spent a few nights volunteering & helping us run a public performance event. They were up for anything from art making to compost burying, to collecting donations. Thanks so much for visiting and bringing your energy to this project!

Having Madge and Maggie sharing my home was an absolute delight. They are sensitive, kind and intelligent. Wonderful deep conversations in the evening. They were not afraid to get dirty and completely revived my garden. They worked independently and completed some unpleasant task, like pulling blackberries with a upbeat, fun attitude. They were… read more

What an incredible experience on Vashon Island with Tamara! My partner and I stayed with her for around two weeks and we are so grateful! We spent time working in her garden and other tasks around the property. I appreciated her transparency and willingness to go with the flow of each day. Tamara also has a knack for bringing together community,… read more

I am so grateful for the time we spent staying with Nat and her growing tribe in Bisbee! My girlfriend and I stayed for around 3 months and both felt like we really took part in the curating of community.

Our work in the beginning was getting the garden ready for spring (I did transform into a hulk moving all those rocks) and then planting… read more

Margaret's sociable personality added a beautiful dynamic to our community bringing multiple people together, and Maggie's laidback energy brought a compassionate atmosphere for us all. They were both helpful and… read more

I am so grateful for my time there! I arrived with my partner and we ended up staying for a month!
It was our first time living at a commune and gave me a true of sense of how this kind of lifestyle can thrive.
Work really became self motivated with no official leader, and inspiring with the opportunity to choose
the kind of work we do. I became… read more

Margaret was a wonderful addition to NYC english programI! WE are an English Immersion program we developed last year for international travelers seeking to improve their English. She helped out once a week with house cleaning, shared her love of yoga with the house and assisted non-native speakers with their English. We mostly manage our… read more

I spent around a month at DIH and would highly recommend it ! The house attracts all kinds of people, and I had the pleasure of spending many nights around the dinner table with people from all over the world, sharing all kinds of stories. The kitchen is great for cooking and my chef skills improved drastically while staying here. Karen is on top… read more

Super worker and a great person Margaret was up for any task and was a positive force both out in the fields and around the house. With work she is clever and proactive and was able to form fast friendships with everyone in our community. She would be welcome back here any time.

Good people, good home. The work varies, combining both creativity and manual labor. The food was nutritious and plentiful. I was also fortunate to be with other energetic and kind workawayers/friends, making the already lively atmosphere, even more festive. I would recommend. Have fun (just at your own risk;) !

Margaret is an easy-going lovely young girl.
I could rely on her to run the classes in an interesting and fun way. Our children really took to her and felt sorry she had to leave after 6 days.
She cooked a delicious applie cake with my daughter and took execellent care of our dog.

I strongly recommend her!

I had a really positive experience teaching here! Iza has created a wonderful, small, language school that really caters to her students. She always made sure I had enough material, but I was also gave me the freedom to be creative and lead. Staying with family was nice as I got my own space and many delicious polish meals! I took multiple bike… read more

Very young and very mature, self responsible, sensitive and supportive would be the first words after the experience of having Monica in our project.
Thank you Monica. Keep on going, keep on growing and you will be a shining light in whatever you doing.
Love and light from Amrit and Sebastian

For my first workaway, this was a great experience. An clear balance between work and free time with the opportunity to really get to know the other workawayers. The meals together brought a strong sense of community. When Sebastian was around, tasks were very clear (only when not, was there some difficulty. However communication is a value in the… read more

A wonderful atmosphere has been created here at this hostel. Each day was filled was either filled with new friends, hikes, and/or music. The work itself was laid back ,as Marenza trusts you to get the job done. The schedule of one full day and a few days also makes adventuring quite accessible. Zakopane is beautiful and so is this new (s/o to the… read more
